The festival blends antique crafts and modern art, offering visitors a variety of activities, many positive emotions, and a rich musical and accompanying program.

From 28 June to 30 June, the residents and guests of Veliko Tarnovo will have the opportunity to enjoy a rich and diverse program within an attractive Fusion festival. Fusion Fest is held for the first time in Veliko Tarnovo, with the support of the Art and Culture Program of the Municipality of Veliko Tarnovo. Fusion music is an innovative art combining different traditional and contemporary cultures and genres but is still poorly recognized. World-Fusion is an art that combines the music of different cultures and from this point of view is particularly attractive to the mass audience. The significance of Fusion Fest at local, national and international level is that it will mix Bulgarian folklore with musical rhythms of other cultures.
